The Wardsworth House, OC Foundation, Resourceful Solutions II and Charlotte Invasion Partner

Charlotte, N.C. -  Charlotte area organizations will come together to host the 17th Annual “It’s a Wonderful Christmas” Celebration on Sunday, December 21, at the Carol Heofner Center.  The celebration will begin at 4 p.m. and will conclude at 8 p.m. and will include dinner, guest speakers and toy presentations to over 300 families in need.

Contributing sponsors such as ARJ, Belk, Coca-Cola, Yummy Tummy, Sam’s Club, Samaritan’s Purse, Toys for Tots, Walmart and others have helped make an impact in our community by signing up as year after year to give donations for this celebration.  For the 17th year, they are joining together once again to bring blessings into the lives of families in need with food and toys.  This year returning sponsors, The Wardsworth House and Resourceful Solutions II, welcome new organizations, OC Foundation and Charlotte Invasion, as presenting sponsors.

Not only is there a celebration, including guest speakers and dinner, but each child will be presented with toys from their wish list provided by one of our contributing sponsors.

This event is intended to put smiles on the faces, love in the hearts, and warm food in the stomachs of families from the Charlotte community.
